Does anyone have any close photos or factory drawing for the dryer and exact bracket used on 71 B-bodies? I'm trying to track the hardware to retain the dryer down bit having trouble finding the proper one.

This attaches with two bolts across from alternator.

That's it! Part of it anyway. I also need the mounting strap. Willing to part with it?

I don't think I have the strap. I'll look, but yeah, pm me.

I cut this piece of metal a little bit longer (I think) than mine. Wrap it over the canister and then you will need to bend the end back some and drill a hole for the bolt. Maybe put end in vise, like I did. I'm not sure, but I think that square hole takes a carriage bolt. I just noticed that mine just has a regular bolt installed (have to fix that). Good luck, Ron.
